What is Residensi Desa Satumas?
Residensi Desa Satumas is a leasehold affordable apartment in Taman Desa, Kuala Lumpur, developed by Aset Kayamas Sdn Bhd under the RUMAWIP (Residensi Wilayah) programme; the development comprises 7 blocks — Blocks A–C at 43 storeys and Blocks D–G at 40 storeys — with 3,002 units of 850 sq ft each, keys were handed over in 2021. SPEEDHOME's managed-portfolio experience across 30,000+ Malaysian tenancy agreements shows Taman Desa RUMAWIP leasehold apartments like this one tend to combine furnished and partially furnished units under mixed landlord ownership, which is why asking rents move floor-by-floor rather than building-wide.
Facilities include a swimming pool, children's playground, multipurpose hall, surau, and 24-hour security. For the live Taman Desa rental filter and which units are currently listed with Zero Deposit, see All live SPEEDHOME rentals.

How the SPEEDHOME platform works at Residensi Desa Satumas
SPEEDHOME listings at Residensi Desa Satumas are individually verified before going live, and SPEEDHOME has had zero reported rental scams on the platform since April 2026; selected listings carry Zero Deposit — SPEEDHOME's managed rental-risk system — but not every unit qualifies, and eligibility depends on the listing and screening outcome. Zero Deposit is SPEEDHOME's managed rental-risk system — not a financial guarantee product — that replaces the upfront cash deposit, so tenants move in without tying up cash while landlords stay protected through rental protection instead of holding a deposit. For severe end-of-tenancy damage beyond fair wear and tear, the standard protection claims process applies.
For landlords at Residensi Desa Satumas, SPEEDHOME's managed model handles tenant screening, tenancy-agreement preparation, and rent collection end to end. SPEEDHOME platform data (most recent measured period, 2026): roughly 30% of tenancy applicants are rejected at SPEEDHOME's screening step before any tenancy agreement is signed. SPEEDHOME platform data (most recent measured period, 2026): roughly 70% of managed tenants pay rent on or before the due date, and roughly 87% pay within 3 days of the due date.
The full-service landlord fee is 2.19% of monthly rent, payable only once a unit is tenanted. To see which Residensi Desa Satumas units are currently listed with Zero Deposit, browse the live filter on All live SPEEDHOME rentals. For the landlord view, see List with SPEEDHOME (landlords).
What to check before and during the Residensi Desa Satumas viewing
Building name does not guarantee unit quality, parking allocation, or commute time; verify each of these at the viewing before you pay anything. A 3,002-unit leasehold RUMAWIP is only as good as the unit you are about to sign for, and the specific block, floor, and view all matter.
| Checkpoint | What to verify | Why it matters for Residensi Desa Satumas |
|---|---|---|
| Block choice | Which block (A–G) you are renting | 7 blocks at 40–43 storeys; the block affects view, noise, and the actual door-to-exit walk |
| Commute route | Your real door-to-destination time at your travel hour | Taman Desa corridor; rail walking distance not confirmed — drive or transit the route at your real travel hour before signing |
| Highway / road noise | Which side of the building faces the main road and which faces the back | Taman Desa corridor units catch road noise — verify at the viewing hour you will actually live with |
| Unit condition | Water pressure, air-conditioning units, windows, ceiling, cabinet doors, tiling | Large-scale RUMAWIP developments mix unit conditions; defects discovered after move-in are harder to resolve |
| Parking | Whether a bay is included, optional, or unavailable in the listing | Parking bay allocation is a common dispute point in 3,002-unit developments — confirm in the tenancy agreement before signing |
| Upfront cash | Total move-in cost: deposit, first month's rent, utility transfer fees | Know your full exposure before committing; ask if the listing has Zero Deposit |
| Tenancy terms | Lease duration, break-clause, maintenance fee responsibility | Clarify who pays maintenance charges and how renewal works |
| Building amenities | Current operating state of pool, playground, multipurpose hall, security, lifts | Advertised facilities are not always in service |
| Sinking fund / special assessment | Current JMB sinking-fund balance and any pending special assessment | A weak sinking fund or pending special assessment will land on the next tenancy |
Who Residensi Desa Satumas fits — and who it does not
Residensi Desa Satumas fits families or sharers who already have a car or a reliable e-hail arrangement, and who need a Taman Desa base; whether a specific unit is a good fit depends on the block, the floor, the furnishing, the current condition and the asking rent. Use the bullets below as a sanity check, then verify the specific unit.
- Fits — families or sharers who already worked out the commute and want a Taman Desa residential base; tenants who will confirm unit condition, parking, and maintenance fee responsibility at viewing; tenants who want a live filtered listing with Zero Deposit on selected units.
- Skip if — you need a walk-to-LRT or walk-to-MRT doorstep and this building is not on a walkable rail line; you cannot absorb move-in cash before Zero Deposit is confirmed; the 850-sq-ft format is too small for your household.
How Residensi Desa Satumas compares with nearby Taman Desa buildings
The most direct comparison is to run the same-day live filter on All live SPEEDHOME rentals for two or three named buildings in the same sub-area; do not rely on article figures as quoted rent. Asking rents move with the season and the corridor.
